The Filling Station

The Filling Station is a charming independent coffee shop and café located at 14910 York Rd in Sparks Glencoe, Maryland, housed in a converted historic gas station that lends the space its nostalgic name and rustic character. The café serves quality espresso drinks, baked goods, and authentic Mexican-inspired fare — including tamales, tacos, and burritos — with fair-trade, shade-grown coffee, and is open daily from 7am to 3pm. Known as a beloved community gathering spot in North Baltimore County, it offers both indoor and outdoor seating amid mature trees alongside a nearby creek, drawing a loyal local following.
